I'm Charlie
For over 30 years, I have been an angel investor and entrepreneur. My mission? To help you, the next generation of innovators, take your business and life to new heights.
I've co-founded 12 startups and invested in 23 more over the last several decades. I mentor founders daily, and my door is always open to those seeking advice. I'm also the founder and director of the Angel Lounge, a vibrant hub where we brainstorm, strategize, and bring ideas to life.
My journey in the business world has been marked by five successful exits from my investments, each netting a 50% Internal Rate of Return (IRR). But the real reward for me is seeing entrepreneurs like you realize their dreams and create great value for their investors. I'm always thinking about how to help you build the company of your dreams.
On a more personal note, my faith has also shaped my journey. I'm a recovering alcoholic, and it was through this recovery process. I found a deep, personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. This spiritual connection fuels my passion for my work. I believe it's a God-given calling to love and serve entrepreneurs, to help them build their dreams.
So, whether you're looking for investment, advice, or a mentor who understands the challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship, I'm here to help. Let's embark on this exciting journey together!
